    Well, I thought these would be easy to identify the maker, but I've not had any luck figuring out who S&S is. I am assuming these are button covers?

    Thanks for your help.

    The designs on the front are from the aesthetic Japonesque period in the last 20 - 30 years of the 1800s.

    Without evidence of a country of origin, it's tough to say how we can find S&S.

    Excellent information! Thank you! Stokes & Son Australian apparently circa maybe 1900 or... maybe Sanford & Shepard is more inline....but it definitely narrowed it down!!!! Thanks @Roaring20s
